quick quick update - tweaking code, getting moonshine up, writing a proposal

Whoa, am I busy.I've been way busy getting the latest issue of moonshine up -- it looks great and I can't wait for feedback.In the process of working on moonshine, I had to muck about the php and fix a few little things, including a wrong bit of code. I think my programming class is paying off -- I spotted the error first off!Also, I'm working on a proposal to do some freelance technical writing -- more on that later. I've got to get my proposal in first....and there's your monday update.

Need a mentor?

For those at the UGA Libraries, there is an internal mentoring program via the Professional Development & Research Committee. too.New Member's Roundtable of ALA offers a mentoring program:----Have you been a librarian for 5 years or less?

Help change clinical research for sarcomas (desmoids, etc.)

Desmoids are benign but aggressively invasive tumors. No treatment is 100% successful and there is no known cure. Until most recently there has been very little research done in the United States on Desmoids, and there was not even a foundation or organization to support such research or even to help those diagnosed with Desmoids. Current treatment is surgery (often removing massive amounts of tissue and a new Desmoid will often recur in the scar tissue), chemotheraphy, or amputation.
